Study notes
Geographical coverage (ilo_geo): No information about the geographical coverage is included in the dataset
Marital Status (ilo_mrts): There is no information about union/cohabiting status.
Labour Force Status (ilo_lfs): For the definition of unemployment, the reference period considered for seeking a job is of four weeks.
Informal/Formal economy (ilo_ife): Note that the questionnaire does not include any questions on bookkeeping and registration. Therefore, the criteria used to identify the informal sector (unit of production) are:

Destination of production (q21) (to identify household units)
Social security coverage (q38) (for employees)
Location of workplace (q50)
Size of the enterprise (sizefirm and q47) (for fixed premises)
Earnings ('ilo_ear_ees' and 'ilo_ear_slf'): Currency in Albania: Old Lek / New Lek - Issue of currency exchange. Results are too high. Not produced for the moment.
Previous economic activity (‘ilo_preveco’) and previous occupation (‘ilo_prevocu’): As the information is only being given in text form and not being translated into ISIC or ISCO codes, the information is not being captured.
